　　Dear Mr．Barton,

　　I’m writing in the name of the residents’ association to inform you of our feelings regarding your behaviour．We’ve really had just about enough of you．Although we have tried to speak to you civilly on several occasions, you have always responded with a stream of verbal abuse．

　　Ever since you moved in three months ago, you have shown very little consideration for the other residents of the building，despite numerous complaints．For the past six weekends in a row，you have held extremely noisy parties，which have not finished until the early hours of the morning．It’s just not on! As you are aware, most of the people here are old people or have very young children，and the noise keeps them awake all night．You don’t have to be so noisy, do you?

　　Last weekend the situation deteriorated further when two of your acquaintances were involved in a fight on the first floor landing．The disturbance was so bad that the police had to be called．What’s more, your mates left the stairs in a terrible state－they even broke two windows on their way out! We feel that this type of bad behaviour is unbearable．

　　We strongly recommended that you arrange payment for this damage to the windows，soon．If you don’t and you carry on being a nuisance, we will kick you out! Legal steps will be taken if necessary．

Yours sincerely

　　Letter to Editor of TV Weekly

　　Dear Sir/Madam,

　　I read Alison Burnham’s review of When we were 12, and I do not agree with her．I thought the programme was wonderful－I found the old news pictures really interesting－they helped to bring to life the stories the people were telling．

　　The programme reminds me of many things from my own childhood．For example, one day when I was about five, I was going to school on the bus by myself (this was the late 1960s)．My mother had given me exactly the right money for a return ticket．I held out my hand with the money in it－one big coin on top of one little coin．The bus conductor took the big top coin only and she gave me a ticket, but it was a pink one for a single journey．I needed a white one for a return journey, but I was too frightened to say anything．When school finished for the day, I couldn’t catch the bus home－I had to walk．As a grown-up, whenever I’ve been in a situation Where I need to say something or take some action, this early memory of my bus ride comes back to me, and I’m able to take control of the situation．

　　I would like to say to the director, Bret Chrysler, carry on making this kind of programme．Too much TV these days is quiz shows and so-called “reality programmes”．I appreciate the human story that can make me laugh and cry．

Yours faithfully,

Chris Daniels

　　B Glynis Davis：I first piled on the pounds when I was in the family way and I couldn’t lose them afterwards．Then I joined a slimming club．My target was 140 pounds and I lost 30 pounds in six months．I felt great and people kept saying how good I looked．But Christmas came and I started to slip back into my old eating habits．I told myself I’d lose the weight at slimming classes in the new year but it didn’t happen．Instead of losing the pounds, I put them on．I’d lost willpower and tried to believe that the odd bag of crisps didn’t make any difference---but the scales don’t lie．

　　Roz Juma：To be honest, I never weigh myself any more I’ve learnt to be happy with myself．It seemed to me that I would feel sorry about every spoonful of tasty food that passed my lips．My idea is simple．You shouldn’t be too much thinking about food and dieting．Instead, you should get on with life and stop dreaming of a supper-thin body．This is obviously the size I’m meant to be and, most of all, I’m happy with it．

　　Lesley Codwin：I was very happy about winning Young Slimmer of the Year．I’d look in the mirror unable to believe this slim lady was me!That might have been my problem---perhaps from then on I didn’t pay any attention to myself．Winning a national competition makes everything worse, though, because you feel the eyes of the world are fixed upon you．I feel a complete failure because I’ve put on weight again．

　　Ros Langfod：Before moving in with my husband Gavin, I’d always been about 110 pounds, but the pleasant housework went straight to my waist and I put on 15 pounds in a year．Every so often I try to go on a diet … I’m really good in a few days, then end up having the children’s leftovers or eating happily chocolate---my weakness．I’d like to be slim, but right now my duty is the children and home．I might take more exercise when my kids are older．

(1)

What do you think the four women were all talking about?
[　　]
A．	Their own slimming matter．
B．	Their life after marriage．
C．	Their work as a housewife．

Where are these short passages most likely to be taken from?
[　　]
A．	Talks on the air．
